Kilos | might fix some of you up | 06:19 |
Kilos | only quick cure i know is a bullet | 06:20 |
superfly | Kilos: any site like that is a scam | 06:22 |
Kilos | oh my | 06:22 |
Kilos | what tells you its a scam | 06:23 |
superfly | Kilos: let me guess, its a LONG page and they rave on about this magnificent cure that has been banned and that it cures everyone it meets and you can get it too for a limited time offer of only $XXXX ? | 06:23 |
Kilos | its many pages | 06:24 |
Kilos | havent read yet | 06:24 |
Kilos | takes me long to read | 06:24 |
Kilos | and its a copyrighted book | 06:25 |
Kilos | over 100 pages | 06:27 |
Kilos | i got one eye member thats nearly as blind as the blind one | 06:29 |
Kilos | so reading is a major effort | 06:30 |
superfly | Kilos: there's a saying: If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is. | 06:37 |
superfly | i.e. if it sounds fantastic, it's probably false | 06:37 |
Kilos | yeah i know but there is also the known fact that doctor ride porsches and put their kids through varsity on their patients illnesses | 06:38 |
Kilos | hmm | 06:41 |
Kilos | the medical proffesion is as evil as the milk peeps | 06:47 |
Kilos | die geld god het oor geneem | 06:47 |
Kilos | the hypocratic oath has become the hypocritic oath | 07:04 |

inetpro | yikes | 10:29 |
Kilos | what inetpro | 10:30 |
inetpro | how do I get the total size of all files in a folder excluding sub-folders | 10:30 |
inetpro | ? | 10:30 |
Kilos | oh my | 10:30 |
inetpro | du -hs /folder is nice and easy for a simple total including sub-folders | 10:31 |
Kilos | right click properties but that dont exclude | 10:31 |
Kilos | i dunno how you's remember all these commands | 10:31 |
Kilos | why do you wanna exclude sub folders | 10:33 |
inetpro | du has a -S option which says do not include size of subdirectories | 10:33 |
inetpro | sadly seems like it's not working | 10:33 |
Kilos | hmm thats clever but what is the point | 10:33 |
Kilos | why exclude them | 10:33 |
inetpro | maybe I got it wrong | 10:33 |
Kilos | no man du | 10:34 |
Kilos | hehe | 10:34 |
inetpro | Kilos: heh, I got that from the man page | 10:34 |
Kilos | haha | 10:35 |
Kilos | ok | 10:35 |
Kilos | was trying to dig at you thats all | 10:35 |
inetpro | ahh | 10:36 |
Kilos | i asked why you wanna exclude them inetpro | 10:36 |
inetpro | actually it is working | 10:36 |
Kilos | they then part of the folder anyway | 10:37 |
inetpro | du -ksS /folder | 10:37 |
Kilos | sjoe | 10:37 |
inetpro | or du -hsS /folder | 10:37 |
Kilos | answer dammit | 10:37 |
inetpro | my -h option just gave me the same figure | 10:37 |
Kilos | im getting like the brat | 10:37 |
* inetpro assumed it was not working | 10:38 | |
Kilos | sigh | 10:38 |
inetpro | my sub folders happen to use very few bytes | 10:38 |
Kilos | i asked why you wanna exclude them inetpro | 10:38 |
Kilos | no matter | 10:38 |
Kilos | you trying to save time or what | 10:39 |
inetpro | I want to copy only files from that folder | 10:39 |
inetpro | just wanted to make sure about the size before I start | 10:39 |
Kilos | ah | 10:39 |
Kilos | ty | 10:39 |
* Kilos wipes sweat off brow | 10:39 | |

Kilos | Maaz, seen morgs | 18:34 |
Maaz | Kilos: morgs was last seen 28 days, 9 hours, 33 minutes and 4 seconds ago in #ubuntu-za on freenode [2012-10-25 02:01:52 PDT], and has been offline on freenode since 2012-10-25 04:12:21 PDT | 18:34 |
Kilos | inetpro, im gonna be like highvoltage | 18:36 |

Kilos | sjoe dit was vinnig | 18:38 |
Kilos | klein strond | 18:38 |
magedroid | Get the pin out for tha sata Kilos | 18:38 |
Kilos | worth a try on a 500 GB drive methinks | 18:39 |
Kilos | its the plastic thats gone | 18:39 |
magedroid | Shows you what each cable does | 18:39 |
Kilos | that black l shaped goody | 18:39 |
magedroid | L | 18:39 |
Kilos | ill strip and solder one by one | 18:40 |
Kilos | ya L | 18:40 |
Kilos | the cable is throw away anyway so its worth a try | 18:40 |
magedroid | You have more skill than me at soldering then | 18:41 |
Kilos | other side of cable stills fits firmly | 18:41 |
magedroid | Definately worth a try | 18:41 |
Kilos | im good at soldering | 18:41 |
Kilos | hi glitterboy_ | 18:41 |
glitterboy_ | hi there | 18:41 |
magedroid | Bbl fish one bedtime | 18:41 |
Kilos | welcome to ubuntu-za | 18:41 |
Kilos | k magedroid | 18:42 |
glitterboy_ | thank you | 18:42 |
Kilos | you come to join us or need ubuntu help glitterboy_ ? | 18:42 |
glitterboy_ | I need some help with ubuntu | 18:42 |
Kilos | linux help too | 18:42 |
Kilos | good state your prob | 18:43 |
Kilos | but once fixed dont stay away hey | 18:43 |
Kilos | we trying to grow users here | 18:43 |
inetpro | lol | 18:44 |
Kilos | are you on 12.04 or 12.10? | 18:44 |
inetpro | hi glitterboy_ | 18:44 |
Kilos | hehe | 18:44 |
Kilos | 10 points for trying inetpro | 18:44 |
glitterboy_ | I'll be back.. I want to extend the battery life of a Ubuntu 11.10 installed laptop. | 18:44 |
Kilos | unity or kde | 18:44 |
glitterboy_ | unity | 18:45 |
inetpro | why did maia not use the loco.ubuntu site? | 18:45 |
inetpro | http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-za | 18:45 |
inetpro | I guess we'll have to set up the event on there | 18:45 |
Kilos | glitterboy_, is your battery old? | 18:46 |
Kilos | if im not mistaken it helps to plugin charger when you gonna be busy a long while | 18:46 |
Kilos | i dont have a lappy | 18:47 |
glitterboy_ | lol | 18:47 |
Kilos | horrible things | 18:47 |
Kilos | the mouse goody sucks | 18:47 |
glitterboy_ | No not really, in windows 7 I get less than 2 hours, in ubuntu I get a bit more (after installing powertop, and laptop-mode etc) | 18:47 |
Kilos | but lots of guys here use them so if there is a way someone will tell you | 18:48 |
glitterboy_ | get a usb mouse | 18:48 |
Kilos | im happy with desktop | 18:48 |
Kilos | bigger for old eyes | 18:48 |
glitterboy_ | one thing I've changed is in the /etc/defualt/grub file. I've changed the line to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash pcie_aspm=force i915.i915_enable_rc6=1 i915.i915_enable_fbc=1 i915.lvds_downclock=1" | 18:49 |
Kilos | inetpro, you a lappy user | 18:49 |
Kilos | ideas? | 18:49 |
inetpro | what's teh question? | 18:49 |
glitterboy_ | BUT, later on I've seen that this is actually for Sandy Bridge, and my laptop uses the GM965 chipset | 18:49 |
Kilos | how to extend lappy battery life | 18:50 |
inetpro | just use it less | 18:50 |
Kilos | what does help to make battery last long is keep the lid closed | 18:51 |
Kilos | sorry | 18:51 |
inetpro | lol | 18:51 |
inetpro | the less you use the battery the longer it lasts | 18:51 |
inetpro | less is more | 18:51 |
glitterboy_ | and I guess to remove the battery all together | 18:51 |
Kilos | glitterboy_, cant you plugin the charger or you use when away from power | 18:51 |
Kilos | my son plugs in charger when he boots | 18:52 |
Kilos | then battery stays constand | 18:52 |
* inetpro has never tweaked the grub bootup options to save power | 18:52 | |
glitterboy_ | I could, but I want to go running with it | 18:52 |
Kilos | what? | 18:52 |
glitterboy_ | joking | 18:52 |
Kilos | running as in jogging? | 18:53 |
Kilos | lol | 18:53 |
Kilos | thats a lappy weakness as far as im concerned | 18:53 |
Kilos | the battery | 18:53 |
glitterboy_ | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/PowerManagement/PowerSavingTweaks | 18:53 |
Kilos | yeah but you might at 20 mins or so | 18:54 |
Kilos | if lucky | 18:54 |
Kilos | plugin the charger | 18:54 |
Kilos | glitterboy_, where are you | 18:55 |
Kilos | and why on 11.10 | 18:55 |
Kilos | 3g? | 18:56 |
glitterboy_ | where? such as where in the world or did you think I went into sleep mode? | 18:56 |
Kilos | ya where in the world | 18:56 |
Kilos | lol | 18:56 |
Kilos | za? | 18:57 |
glitterboy_ | no 3g, 11.10 because when I tried to update to 12.10 it gave "compression error" on boot | 18:57 |
Kilos | eish | 18:57 |
glitterboy_ | at the moment I'm in Botswana, but will be back in ZA in desember | 18:57 |
Kilos | 11.10 you gotta first upgrade to 12.04 then 12.10 | 18:57 |
Kilos | if no data prob download 12.10 | 18:58 |
Kilos | then install alongside to check it out first | 18:58 |
glitterboy_ | okay..i'll try that.. did you see the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/PowerManagement/PowerSavingTweaks site? | 18:58 |
Kilos | 12.04 is quite stable now | 18:59 |
Kilos | nope thats for lappy guys | 18:59 |
glitterboy_ | it is for Sandy bridge, isn't there such tweaks for Core 2 Duo? | 18:59 |
Kilos | only eskom messes with my power | 18:59 |
glitterboy_ | haha | 18:59 |
glitterboy_ | is there a channel called #lappy_guys | 19:00 |
glitterboy_ | ?' | 19:00 |
Kilos | what does google say about the tweaks for core2 | 19:00 |
Kilos | rofl | 19:00 |
glitterboy_ | don't get any... | 19:00 |
Kilos | weall mixed here | 19:00 |
Kilos | aw | 19:00 |

Kilos | inetpro, you looking at the tweaks | 19:03 |
inetpro | hmm... nee | 19:03 |
inetpro | sorry | 19:03 |
glitterboy_ | I think i've been here before, I've been playing with Ubuntu since 6.04 | 19:03 |
* inetpro got a bit distracted | 19:03 | |
Kilos | maybe it can help you then your ear will last longer too | 19:03 |
Kilos | and hear better | 19:04 |

Kilos | quiker | 19:18 |
Kilos | lol | 19:19 |
Kilos | quicker | 19:19 |
magedroid | I use more than one according to what i want to do | 19:19 |
kbmonkey | i'm keen to try the suckless browser | 19:19 |
inetpro | 22/11 21:12:12 <magedroid> Vodacom is doing there 20 gigs for 499 again | 19:19 |
magedroid | Tried lynx for the first time | 19:19 |
inetpro | magedroid: where did you see that? | 19:20 |
magedroid | Sorry their | 19:20 |
Kilos | i tried ff chromium and opera for a time but whew | 19:20 |
magedroid | Mybb | 19:20 |
Kilos | where did the data bundle go | 19:20 |
inetpro | mooi! | 19:20 |
* inetpro shall have to check that out | 19:20 | |
magedroid | Supposed to start sometime nowish | 19:20 |
kbmonkey | i used lynx a lot while travelling. great for looking up stuff, not so good for media rich sites :p | 19:22 |
kbmonkey | amazing low bandwidth sufring! | 19:23 |
magedroid | Was trying it through an ssh coonection to my shop server | 19:23 |
magedroid | Connection even | 19:23 |
kbmonkey | err, surfing. sufring is what you feel when bandwidth runs out ;) | 19:23 |
Kilos | yeah | 19:24 |
Kilos | and links methinks | 19:24 |
kbmonkey | magedroid, you might be interested in 'mosh'. it's ssh but for bad connections. | 19:24 |
Kilos | was 2 of them | 19:24 |
kbmonkey | anyone here has some offlineimap experience? | 19:26 |
magedroid | kbmonkey will check it out | 19:27 |
magedroid | Offline as in? | 19:28 |
glitterboy_ | see you all later.. got to go | 19:28 |
Kilos | ok cheers glitterboy_ pop back soon | 19:29 |
* magedroid is skip watching the matrix reloaded | 19:29 | |
kbmonkey | offlineimap is a tool that syncs your mail (say gmail) to a local imap directory | 19:30 |
kbmonkey | so you can connect your mail client to a local copy of your imap | 19:30 |
kbmonkey | useful for slow/bad connections. it syncs back in the background | 19:30 |
Kilos | kbmonkey, why not use pop | 19:30 |
Kilos | then it only fetches new mail | 19:31 |
kbmonkey | because pop does not sync mail flags across clients | 19:31 |
Kilos | and leaves the rest at gail etc | 19:31 |
Kilos | whew | 19:31 |
Kilos | you always get so invloved | 19:31 |
smile4ever | byee :p | 19:31 |
kbmonkey | lol | 19:31 |
kbmonkey | byee | 19:32 |
Kilos | involved as well | 19:32 |
Kilos | toods kbmonkey be good | 19:32 |
Kilos | oh toods smile | 19:32 |
magedroid | Use thunderbird but do an offline sync before i go home | 19:32 |
Kilos | i dont read fast enough | 19:32 |
kbmonkey | plug your brain into the pc, Kilos | 19:33 |
Kilos | oh my it will forget how to boot | 19:33 |
kbmonkey | harhar | 19:34 |
Kilos | magedroid, for soldering thin copper wires and all pc stuff get resin core sloder not acid core | 19:37 |
Kilos | and the thin one works better | 19:37 |
Kilos | solder | 19:37 |
Kilos | heat what you wanna solder with the iron then apply solder and it should rund to the two connections and not leave a point behind when removing iron | 19:38 |
magedroid | I have some, wiil try it on a external crad reade4r that has diconnected wires | 19:39 |
Kilos | first clean the irons tip onna piece of cloth when hot then tin the tip | 19:41 |
magedroid | Will do | 19:43 |
Kilos | maybe ill try make a movie of it sometime | 19:44 |
magedroid | Cool idea | 19:45 |
Kilos | when all good the solders runs | 19:45 |
Kilos | 3 of us soldered all the fone lines in the pta exchange many years ago | 19:45 |
Kilos | whew | 19:46 |
Kilos | 40 years ago | 19:46 |
Kilos | maybe there was only 1000 peeps in pta back then | 19:46 |
magedroid | I think a few more than tha Kilos, 1002 maybe | 19:49 |
inetpro | Kilos: sounds like you really need to make a movie from that | 19:49 |
Kilos | rofl | 19:49 |
Kilos | its so easy | 19:49 |
magedroid | Did you hluhluwe was on manual exchange only 15 years ago | 19:50 |
magedroid | Kilos only if you know how | 19:50 |
Kilos | first the wires must be clean' | 19:50 |
Kilos | as in just striiped | 19:50 |
Kilos | stripped | 19:50 |
Kilos | that is plastic coating off | 19:51 |
Kilos | if you can tin each one | 19:51 |
Kilos | hold it on the freshly tinned iron and touch solder on the wire | 19:51 |
Kilos | when temp right solder will flow onto wire | 19:52 |
Kilos | then you put some fresh solder on the iron and put both wires on together same time and solder will join them | 19:53 |
Kilos | lift off iron and blow cool | 19:53 |
Kilos | 1 or 2 secs | 19:53 |
Kilos | well done | 19:53 |
kbmonkey | cold wires repel hot solder. | 19:53 |
magedroid | Will give it a go | 19:53 |
Kilos | if it leaves points you were too slow to put them on the iron aftyer tinning it | 19:54 |
Kilos | yip as wires warm to right temp the solder flows onto them | 19:54 |
Kilos | very easy | 19:54 |
Kilos | you can practise on thicker wires so you can watch as the temp is right how it flows | 19:55 |
Kilos | practise on scrap wires first | 19:55 |
Kilos | oh | 19:56 |
kbmonkey | a wet sponge to wipe the iron point clean helps too | 19:56 |
Kilos | there are some wires without plastic coating in modern things | 19:56 |
kbmonkey | get the resin buildup on the tip off | 19:56 |
Kilos | yip | 19:56 |
Kilos | i use finger to wipe off | 19:56 |
kbmonkey | Kilos, do you have an assorted collection of wires at home? | 19:56 |
kbmonkey | finger? eish, hard man. | 19:56 |
Kilos | bits for speakers and cellphone chargers | 19:57 |
Kilos | and power cords | 19:57 |
Kilos | no man | 19:57 |
kbmonkey | ;D | 19:57 |
Kilos | you can dip your finger into molten solder quickly | 19:57 |
